Haiku: The Early Years…

“There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favorite book.” Marcel Proust

Haiku: The Early Years… the world is a book

This is not page three
Early years, part idyllic
Spent buried in books…

Curled up in a corner of my dad’s home office, book in hand, I entered the magical world of words. There, I found the sunny parts and the missing parts of my life; a world that made more sense. In this haiku, I share snippets of my early years… and I’m just being honest about the specific page numbers in my offline writings.

Some parts of my earliest years were shrouded in mystery. The inexplicable absence of certain details filled in by invented imagery.

Didn’t I have a childhood?
A doorway much lost…
